    I know full well why it matters to me: because it’s stupid and I’m expected to go along with it as if it wasn’t.

    Since when is that not enough reason to be annoyed by something?

      I’ve got news for you. There’s a billion things just like that lined up to annoy you, and you don’t have enough time in your life to be annoyed by all of them. Each and every one of them is completely meaningless and addressing them will not make you feel better. Maybe try finding someone nice instead.

        Yeah, being annoyed by one stupid small thing doesn’t mean being annoyed by ALL stupid small things.

        Humans tend to like and dislike specific things for their own reasons and none.

        I’ve got news for you: trying to police what people are allowed to be annoyed about doesn’t do anything except give them one more thing to be annoyed about, namely a condescending asshole trying to cluelessly “educate” them.

        Maybe try to find something nice to do with your time instead.

          I’m only saying all this for your benefit. I used to get hung up on stuff and it sucks. There’s a million better ways to spend your time. Enjoy your annoyance since that’s clearly what you’re into.

            Bullshit. I’ve been clear from the start that your input isn’t helpful or welcome.

            I used to get hung up on stuff and it sucks

            You still get hung up on stuff. For example, you’re currently hung up on me having the audacity to be annoyed by something without presenting you with a reason you think is good enough.

            There’s a million better ways to spend your time

            I don’t actually tend to spend a lot of time on it. I’ve spent more time being annoyed by your annoyance gatekeeping today than I’ve spent being annoyed about presidential numbering the last two or three months.

            Enjoy your annoyance since that’s clearly what you’re into.

            Yeah, it can’t be that you’re wrong and insufferably smug about it, it HAS to be that I just love being annoyed.

            Just fuck off already.
